I am testing my new RAM for errors and MemTest86 reported some errors I did not understand. It seems like something is wrong so I posted two pictures I took. I tested two separate sticks of RAM overnight.

I also ran Prime95 and Furmark for two hours and one pass (respectively) and my computer passed. I'm using a brand new Corsair TX750. I also confirmed that the voltage and speed is set correctly in my BIOS.

Mobo - ASRock Z77 Extreme4
RAM - Patriot Viper 4x4GB

I would say its highly likely that your ram is not 100% stable at the speed you are running it at.

Try running hclmemtest in windows. To do this open several instances of hclmemtest so that you can have over 90% of your ram tested. Run this for 200% coverage and see if it reports anything.
 
You may need a touch more voltage when running 4 dimms. If both pairs pass when testing them individually then they need more juice.

Memory errors can be tricky to fix sometimes. I had a faulty dimm a couple of years ago (1 of 4), the only time the flaw really showed itself was folding.

I'd take them back and get 32gigs! :D
